Description

Their timeless California-cool tracks have the ability to flash you back to long summer days, filled with time spent basking in the sunshine, tossing around a beach ball, and cruising the coast highway in a convertible. The Beach Boys are synonymous with blue skies and an easy-going attitude, producing music that shaped the surf rock sound. Few acts can match their concert presence, spirit and performance. Fronted by Mike Love and Bruce Johnston, the Beach Boys will perform classics like "Good Vibrations" and "Wouldn’t It Be Nice&quo t; at the Good Life Festival™ at Encanterra. Attendees can unwind and partake in the festival’s version of the beach-comber lifestyle for a day that includes a craft beer tasting,* noshing on delicious local festival foods, and shopping at boutique booths.

* Guests must be age 21 or older to participate in sampling alcoholic beverages.

From humble roots in Hawthorne, Calif., The Beach Boys have become an international sensation. Their famous harmonies and classic songs have spanned five decades of music that many consider to be the world’s favorite soundtrack to summer. The Beach Boys signed with Capitol Records in July 1962 and released their first album, Surfin’ Safari, that same year. The album spent 37 weeks on the Billboard chart, launching the young group into international stardom. The Beach Boys continue to hold Billboard/Nielsen SoundScan’s record as the top-selling American band for albums and singles. They also are the American group with the most Billboard Top 40 chart hits (36). ‘Sounds Of Summer: The Very Best Of The Beach Boys’ achieved triple-Platinum sales status and ‘The SMiLE Sessions,’ released to wo rldwide critical acclaim, was heralded as 2011’s #1 Reissue of the Year by Rolling Stone magazine. The original core quintet was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988. The band members also are recipients of The Recording Academy’s Lifetime Achievement GRAMMY Award. In addition to Love and Johnston, the band’s lineup includes Christian Love, guitar/vocals; Randell Kirsch, bass/vocals; Tim Bonhomme, keyboard/vocals; John Cowsill, percussion/vocals; and Scott Totten, guitar/vocals.
